If I run mvn package, while a file — such as src/main/resources/log4j2.xml — is open in gvim, Maven will copy the .log4j2.xml.swp into target/classes/ and then bundle it in the target JAR.

How would I exclude anything matching the .??* glob-pattern? The pom.xml is fairly simple (albeit with very large list of dependencies), and, in particular, the only <plugin> under <build> is:

            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
                <artifactId>appassembler-maven-plugin</artifactId>

                            <goal>assemble</goal>
                        </goals>
                        <configuration>
                            <platforms>
                                <platform>unix</platform>
                            </platforms>

                            <generateRepository>false</generateRepository>

                                <program>
                                    <id>tools_env.sh</id>
                                    <mainClass>-</mainClass>
                                </program>
                            </programs>
                        </configuration>
                    </execution>
                </executions>
            </plugin>
